Grit (#200 – 3/8″, Safety)
Applications & Uses
Grit Aggregate (#200 - 3/8") with Safety Attribute
Grit in the #200 - 3/8" size range is a finely crushed stone aggregate designed for enhanced safety in a variety of construction and landscaping applications. Produced by mechanically crushing larger stones, this material features angular particles that provide excellent traction and stability.
The specific size range-from fine particles (#200) up to 3/8"-ensures a balance between compactability and surface grip. This makes it ideal for use on walkways, playgrounds, icy surfaces, and as a non-slip additive for concrete or asphalt. The safety attribute means it is particularly effective in reducing slip hazards, making it a popular choice for both residential and commercial settings where secure footing is essential. While its fine texture offers superior traction, it may not be suitable for heavy load-bearing applications or areas requiring significant drainage.
